It is my pleasure to announce that the 37th Annual Service Awards
ceremony will be held on Tuesday, October 26, 2004, in the Price Center
Ballroom. The ceremony provides an occasion for the campus community to
acknowledge and recognize those UCSD staff employees who have achieved
10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 years of service during the period of
September 1, 2003, through August 31, 2004. This year, we will recognize
and celebrate the service achievements of 529 staff members.

The ceremony will begin at 2:30 p.m. and will include presentations of
awards and certificates of appreciation to 128 employees who have
completed 25, 30 and 35 years of service. Employees who have completed
10, 15 and 20 years of service will receive certificates of appreciation
to recognize their service and commitment to the University.

Vice chancellors, department heads and supervisors will be provided a
listing of this year's honorees. All supervisors should encourage those
who are to be recognized to attend the ceremony.

UCSD is indeed fortunate to have such a high level of commitment and
contribution from the large number of valued employees as reflected by
those being acknowledged at this year's Service Awards ceremony.
